Edit My Ex – Remove Your Ex from Your Photos

While I am, generally speaking, appalled, I could imagine scenarios in which the ex was, let's say, violently abusive, and it might be justified. "We're not here to judge, we're here to Photoshop", is an awesome slogan. Also, awful.

The photos in the "Our Work" are fake. See the analysis of the second example http://fotoforensics.com/analysis.php?id=6db59a852d8a806a8c42422992c099a192442725.254646 http://fotoforensics.com/analysis.php?id=6db59a852d8a806a8c4... http://fotoforensics.com/analysis.php?id=52e7e3eb6a9165b2dac2d5aaac10c716cb85f4e3.184593 http://fotoforensics.com/analysis.php?id=52e7e3eb6a9165b2dac... The "lines"around the persons are a clear sign that they just got an image of an empty beach and photoshopped the two persons. (I couldn't find the original photos. Perhaps they took the photos, but I suspect that they are stock photos or something similar. Bonus points for finding any of them.) The other two examples in the "Our Work" section have a similar signs of been fake.

This reminds me of that black mirror episode where blocking someone in real life blurred their faces in pictures and memory. Doesn't seem like a very helpful thing to me. Sure it's hard looking at pictures and having those memories, but, if there's pictures, there was probably at least some good memories. I always just try and focus on those while looking at such pictures. Shit happens, good and bad, editing pictures(or altering memories) doesn't change this. It might suck that pictures can bring up bad memories but removing the person from them won't change your memories and I doubt it'll make you forget you were there with that person.

£6.99 for a photo? That's too steep. I guess this can be automated.
